A new documentary about beer, which debuts this month on the Untappd social beer app, includes guest appearances by a few Colorado legends, such as Julia Herz, former craft beer director at the Brewers Association, and Peter Bouckaert, the former New Belgium brewmaster who now owns Purpose Brewing.
The film, called
BEER! A Love Story, weaves together the stories of thirty international protagonists across multiple countries who speak the universal language of beer, the world’s most consumed fermented beverage, the producers say. It bridges the gap between Europe and America.to show the panorama of beer styles now replicated across the globe. For any foodie, movie buff, and beer or beverage fan, this is a must-watch film.”
Hey, creative types! Two different beer makers, Great Divide Brewing and Pikes Peak Brewing, are throwing out a call to artists to design their next beer cans.
Pikes Peak is looking for a design for its brand-new cans of Tejon Mexican Lager, which it started brewing upon opening the second Pikes Peak taproom, the Lager House, in Colorado Springs. The easy-drinking lager is made with flaked maize and Lemondrop hops; it s named after the street where the Lager House sits. The details are available on the brewery s website, but they include a look that will be more fun than the brewery s existing label design.
